Phenamil methanesulfonate, an analog of Amiloride (HY-B0285), is a more potent and less reversible epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) blocker with an IC50 of 400 nM. Phenamil methanesulfonate is also a competive inhibitor of TRPP3 and inhibits TRPP3-mediated Ca2+ transport with an IC50 of 140 nM in a Ca2+ uptake assay. Phenamil methanesulfonate is an intriguing small molecule to promote bone repair by strongly activating BMP signaling pathway. Phenamil methanesulfonate is used for the research of cystic fibrosis lung disease.

Description

Phenamil methanesulfonate, an analog of Amiloride (HY-B0285), is a more potent and less reversible epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) blocker with an IC50 of 400 nM[2]. Phenamil methanesulfonate is also a competive inhibitor of TRPP3 and inhibits TRPP3-mediated Ca2+ transport with an IC50 of 140 nM in a Ca2+ uptake assay[1]. Phenamil methanesulfonate is an intriguing small molecule to promote bone repair by strongly activating BMP signaling pathway[4]. Phenamil methanesulfonate is used for the research of cystic fibrosis lung disease[5].

IC50 & Target[1]

TRPC3

140 nM (IC50)

In Vitro

TRPP3, a member of the transient receptor potential (TRP) superfamily of cation channels, is a Ca2+-activated channel permeable to Ca2+, Na+, and K+. TRPP3 is implicated in regulation of pH-sensitive action potential in spinal cord neurons.
Phenamil methanesulfonate (1 μM) decreases 45Ca2+ uptake in a radiotracer uptake assay. It inhibits TRPP3-mediated Ca2+ transport with an IC50 value of 0.28 μM in oocytes expressing TRPP3 or H2O-injected oocytes[1].
Phenamil methanesulfonate is a more potent ENaC blocker than Amiloride, it inhibits the epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) with an IC50 of 400 nM (Amiloride=776 nM)[2].
Phenamil methanesulfonate inhibits basal short-circuit currents with IC50 values of 75 and 116 nM, respectively in both human and ovine bronchial epithelia cells[3].
Phenamil methanesulfonate (0-20 μM; 14 days) elevates adipogenic gene expression, PPARγ, Fabp4, and lipoprotein lipase expression in a concentration-dependent manner ,and regulates adipogenesis in C3H10T1/2 cells[4].
Phenamil methanesulfonate (0-20 μM; 7 or 14 days) modulates MC3T3-E1 osteoblastic differentiation, it increases Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity in MC3T3-E1 cells in a concentration-dependent manner[4].

RT-PCR[4]

Cell Line: C3H10T1/2 cells
Concentration: 0 μM and 20 μM
Incubation Time: 14 days
Result: Increased PPARγ, Fabp4, and lipoprotein lipase (LPL) mRNA expression.
In Vivo

Phenamil methanesulfonate (subcutaneous injection; 15 or 30 mg/kg; 21 days; infusion rate of 1 ml/h) reduces chronic-hypoxia-induced pulmonary artery hypertension (PAH). Additionally, the mRNA level of SMA, SM22, Id3, and Trb3 from the lung sample are also decreased by Phenamil under hypoxia or normoxia in rats. However, phenamil has little effect on pulmonary vasculature under physiological conditions[5].

In Vivo:

Select the appropriate dissolution method based on your experimental animal and administration route.

For the following dissolution methods, please ensure to first prepare a clear stock solution using an In Vitro approach and then sequentially add co-solvents:
To ensure reliable experimental results, the clarified stock solution can be appropriately stored based on storage conditions. As for the working solution for in vivo experiments, it is recommended to prepare freshly and use it on the same day.
The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.

  • Protocol 1

    Add each solvent one by one:  10% DMSO    40% PEG300    5% Tween-80    45% Saline

    Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (6.22 mM); Clear solution

    This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).

    Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 400 μL PEG300, and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 and mix evenly; then add 450 μL Saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.

    Preparation of Saline: Dissolve 0.9 g sodium chloride in ddH₂O and dilute to 100 mL to obtain a clear Saline solution.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
